- id-utils TODO - Future directions
-
- * Portability
- - Fix file name handling for non-UNIX file systems
- (notably DOS, Windoze & OS/2).
- - Fix assumption that (sizeof (int) == sizeof (long))
-
- * lid
- - use "long long" (if available) integer comparisons
- in query_number ().
-
- * mkid & lid
- - store & retrieve floating point literals
- - automatically crack (optionally gzipped or compressed) tar files, so
- you can index and search archived source without having to unpack it.
-
- * mkid
- - relax static limit on maximum number of files (currently 32768)
- - (Optinally?) store tokenized contents of comments.
- - Store attributes with symbols: type, func, variable struct-tag
- enum-tag, keyword, etc. Store caller/callee relationships between
- identifiers. Indicate which files have defns vs. uses. This info
- is needed to support a cscope interface.
- - Add times(2) results to statistics output.
- - treat \ specially for TeX files and do likewise with @ for Texinfo.
- - report dangling symlinks as such, rather than just saying "can't stat"
- - Reinstate "-" on command-line, meaning read stdin for newline-separated args.
-
- * gscope
- - add a cscope work-alike query interface
- - rewrite scanners to be scanner/parsers that can distinguish defn
- from use, lvalues from rvalues, types from vars from funcs from macros.
-
- * grep
- - Hack GNU grep to use a mkid database for hints about which files to
- search.
